WHAT IS THE ADVENTURE BLANKET?

Think of the choose-your-own-adventure books!

When we were brainstorming for a good theme for our CAL, I asked Helen what she thought of using that concept to create something as unique as each crocheter is.

We hashed out a lot of details and have a fun and amazing blanket for you to create.
